It Chooses You by Miranda July, Brigitte Sire

5.0

---

With lines like "All I ever really want to know is how other people are making it through life-- where do they put their body, hour by hour, and how do they cope inside of it" Miranda July is quickly shaping up to be one of my favorite humans. At some points while reading on the train I was physically tensed up and almost out of breath because of how deeply understood I felt. To be both a person who lives in your head and aware of that daily struggle and to be able to talk about it so beautifully is something that is winning my heart. You've cracked it wide open, July.
